The Black Crowes and Tedeschi Trucks Band are hitting the road together this Summer. The bands will hit the road beginning July 19th. The upcoming tour doesn’t give the members of The Black Crowes much time to relax as the band is currently on its “Lay Down With The Number 13” tour. It’s the first tour for the band since ending its two-year long hiatus. This current tour takes the band across the U.S. It runs through June 2nd. From there, the band will head overseas for the European leg of its tour. The European leg of the tour will run from June 18th – July 6th. It will include headlining shows, festivals, and a pair of stadium shows with “The Boss” himself, Bruce Springsteen.
The upcoming tour dates are in support of The Black Crowes most recent release, Wiser for the Time. This release is a four-disc, eight-side gatefold vinyl release. It contains 26 songs—15 acoustic and 11 electric—from the band’s 2010 five-night stint in New York City.
The Tedeschi Trucks Band is currently touring in support of its most recent album, Revelator (2011). The album won a Grammy for best Blues Album at the 2012 Grammys. That album was followed up the live album, Everybody’s Talkin’ in May 2012. The band’s next LP is expected to be released in Summer 2013.
